"If you stay at Casa Palopó in Guatemala, it can be tough to wrench yourself away from the views of Lake Atitlan and the three volcanoes, but you won’t regret heading inside the boutique hotel to explore the library, which celebrates regional culture. The furniture is covered in local textiles, and the art includes local hand-painted pottery and a decorative huipil (a traditional tunic-style garment) from one of the surrounding villages." - Diana Spechler
